Our people

Erica Tucker

Erica is a principal consultant within the Newcastle office of Nigel Wright where she recruits mid to senior marketing positions across sectors including FMCG, professional services, public sector and manufacturing, to name a few. In addition, she also has line management responsibility for the entry to mid-level sales and marketing desks within the Newcastle office.

Erica graduated in 2012 from John Moores University with a 1st class BA Hons degree. Her own experience in sales and marketing started 10 years ago when she began working as an office junior in an estate agents. She then spent seven years progressing in the industry when she decided to pursue a career change after relocating to the North East in 2015.

Prior to joining Nigel Wright, Erica gained experience as a commercial consultant for an international agency over an 18 month period, recruiting for sales and marketing positions amongst others.

A prime example how a recruitment agency should work. The consultant was involved in the process right from the start, and supported me through every step, from my initial interview to the job offer. Always helpful, full of advice, and made sure that I was ready for my interviews. A 100% professional approach.

Special mention to Erica for thinking of me when the role I've just landed came up. The agency hadn't considered someone with my background previously, but thanks to Erica, they gave me an opportunity to meet them. The rest is history – now I'm working for one of the best agencies in the North East and can finally think about a long term career with them.

I've found Erica to be really proactive at approaching me about roles I might be interested in. When I became available for a new opportunity, I really appreciated her warm and reassuring manner when we met to discuss what I'd like to do next. Erica's approach is organised and flexible; she arranged an informal chat for me with an employer who I believe is more used to formal interviews and was great at providing all the information I needed, and follow-up. Thanks Erica!

Candidate

Erica saw a job that had my name written all over it. She gave me a call and asked me if I’d be ok with her putting my name forward, which I was. Erica was polite, professional and excellent with her communication, keeping in touch with me with updates throughout the whole process. The service she provided was brilliant and I’m extremely grateful that she contacted me regarding the job as I went on to be successful.

Erica really went above and beyond what was expected, talking me down off a ledge when I had worked myself up after being offered a position. She was exceptional, highly professional and personable, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone.

In my hunt for a new role, the best decision I made was to get in touch with Nigel Wright. My contact at the firm, Erica, was extremely helpful throughout and always acted in my best interest to find a role that was right for me. Would happily recommend the company, and Erica, to others.

Candidate

Erica was great from the start of the process until the end. Her communication and understanding of what I was looking for in my next career move. I have and will continue to recommend her to colleagues past and present looking to make their next move.

Candidate

I was very impressed with how Erica supported me throughout the whole experience. I felt she listened and understood any questions and concerns I had throughout. I never felt any pressure to make a decision that wasn’t right for me. I’m enjoying learning about and settling into a new job with a well-respected company.

Candidate

Erica genuinely cares about people and took the time to get to know me and explain how she could help my search for a new role. I felt as if I was a person to her rather than a KPI. I have had some interesting experiences with recruitment agents over the last few months to the point where I no longer felt that working with a recruitment agent was in my best interest. Erica changed my mind, and I would always recommend that people work with Nigel Wright because of the way she has treated me.

Candidate

Most professional and efficient from the outset. Really helpful in taking the time out to understand our recruitment needs and providing a good calibre of CVs for us to review and fill our posts quickly. Very proficient and efficient service.

Erica was great throughout the process. She presented a realistic picture of the market, offered suitably qualified candidates and supported the interview and appointment process. Communication was great throughout, picked up by colleagues when Erica was unavailable, and made the process easy for me.
